Home Monitoring in Interstitial Lung Disease: Protocol for a Real-World Observational Study

Home Monitoring in Interstitial Lung Disease: Protocol for a Real-World Observational Study

Clinical trials have demonstrated that home spirometry is acceptable to patients with ILD [16-18]. Home spirometry correlates with clinical spirometry and is thought to be effective in detecting disease progression in patients with ILD [19,20]. The widespread increase in societal digitization, including smartphone utilization, has enabled the development of digital care pathways.

Deep Learning–Based Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Exacerbation Prediction Using Flow-Volume and Volume-Time Curve Imaging: Retrospective Cohort Study

Deep Learning–Based Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Exacerbation Prediction Using Flow-Volume and Volume-Time Curve Imaging: Retrospective Cohort Study

The primary outcomes were moderate-to-severe and severe AE-COPD events occurring within 1 year after the spirometry test. A moderate AE-COPD was defined as a worsening of COPD symptoms necessitating the use of antibiotics or systemic corticosteroids. A severe AE-COPD was defined by the requirement for hospitalization or emergency department visits due to symptom flare-ups.

Estimation of Static Lung Volumes and Capacities From Spirometry Using Machine Learning: Algorithm Development and Validation

Estimation of Static Lung Volumes and Capacities From Spirometry Using Machine Learning: Algorithm Development and Validation

Given this context, we hypothesized that ML models could predict static lung volumes using spirometry alone across a diverse cohort of lung conditions. Such an approach could reduce the need for identifying those who would benefit most from formal lung volume assessments. In this study, we applied ML approaches to develop and validate an algorithm for estimating lung volumes and capacities from standard spirometry.

App- and Wearable-Based Remote Monitoring for Patients With Myasthenia Gravis and Its Specialists: Feasibility and Usability Study

App- and Wearable-Based Remote Monitoring for Patients With Myasthenia Gravis and Its Specialists: Feasibility and Usability Study

This enabled remote health monitoring throughout the study by active (PROMs and spirometry) and passive (wearable) continuous data collection. Patients were instructed to fill out PROMs and perform spirometry at predefined intervals. They were instructed to wear the wearable during waking hours (at least 14 h per day) throughout the study period and optionally at night.

The Long-Term Uptake of Home Spirometry in Regular Cystic Fibrosis Care: Retrospective Multicenter Observational Study

The Long-Term Uptake of Home Spirometry in Regular Cystic Fibrosis Care: Retrospective Multicenter Observational Study

Understanding how people with CF incorporate home spirometry into their treatment routine is crucial for evaluating its added value. There is a specific need for more insights into the long-term uptake of home spirometry in regular CF care. This study aimed to examine the uptake of home spirometry in regular CF care in 5 Dutch CF centers over 2.5 years.

Integrating Real-Time Air Quality Monitoring, Ecological Momentary Assessment, and Spirometry to Evaluate Asthma Symptoms: Usability Study

Integrating Real-Time Air Quality Monitoring, Ecological Momentary Assessment, and Spirometry to Evaluate Asthma Symptoms: Usability Study

In addition, participants completed home spirometry 5 times per day and ecological momentary assessment (EMA) surveys on a smartphone to determine respiratory symptoms throughout the day. While it was possible for Turner et al [12] to retrospectively assess associations between lung function and exposures within 30 minutes, real-time determination of exposure and its pulmonary impact was not possible.

Patient Engagement With and Perspectives on a Mobile Health Home Spirometry Intervention: Mixed Methods Study

Patient Engagement With and Perspectives on a Mobile Health Home Spirometry Intervention: Mixed Methods Study

Home spirometry device and onboarding. Screenshot of patient chat experience. FEV1: forced expiratory volume in the first second. The 3 primary outcomes were patient engagement with the intervention, including (1) module engagement, defined as completing at least 1 module of any chat, (2) spirometry engagement, defined as patients who submitted at least 1 home spirometry FEV1 value, or (3) symptom checklist engagement, defined as patients who responded to a symptom-reporting checklist at least once.

Impact of Remote Patient Monitoring Platform on Patients With Moderate to Severe Persistent Asthma: Observational Study

Impact of Remote Patient Monitoring Platform on Patients With Moderate to Severe Persistent Asthma: Observational Study

The care team monitored the number of check-ins and data generated from remote spirometry. Engagement was assessed by averaging weekly check-ins, alerts, and number of spirometry sessions by the patients. In total, 2 yellow check-ins or 1 red check-in prompted a call to the patient first. The care team made notes and then informed the doctor’s office for further follow-up.

Evaluating a Remote Monitoring Program for Respiratory Diseases: Prospective Observational Study

Evaluating a Remote Monitoring Program for Respiratory Diseases: Prospective Observational Study

Spirometry adherence rates for the ILD and COPD cohorts were calculated based on the frequency of recordings per week. The American Thoracic Society (ATS) grading system provided with spirometry data was used to assess the quality and usability of the measurements. These analyses enabled us to visualize the optimal protocol frequency for spirometry to limit burden while ensuring useful data.

Development and Testing of a Data Capture Device for Use With Clinical Incentive Spirometers: Testing and Usability Study

Development and Testing of a Data Capture Device for Use With Clinical Incentive Spirometers: Testing and Usability Study

Uncertainty around the effective spirometry use is partially due to the scarcity of spirometer compliance data [16]. Compliance measurements, made through self-reporting and staff observation, are difficult to obtain, and when captured, they have demonstrated low patient adherence to the incentive spirometer device [12].
